Hello David, this is a batch of patches intended for net-next/linux-3.14. Here we start with patches 1, 2 and 3 that are minor cleanups: - fix a typ0 in a header guard define - substitute the FSF address with the URL in every file (checkpatch still complains about the text I used, but this is what the rest of the networking code is doing) - minor optimisation of ntohl usage Then we have patch 4 that improves the bat-GW selection feature by deselecting the current GW on client mode deactivation. This allows userspace to get a meaningful uevent on a further client mode reactivation. Patches 5 and 6 are other minor refactorings: - a function renaming (gw_deselect() -> gw_reselect()) to better reflect its behaviour - remove parenthesis around return expressions Patch 7 is yet another improvement to the bat-GW feature: now all the DHCP packets are sent via bat-unicast messages. With this we achieves to goals: 1) the DHCP protocol becomes even more reliable in sparse wireless mesh networks, where broadcast packets do not always make their way through 2) the broadcast overhead due to DHCP packets in dense wireless networks is now reduced as we only use unicasts. In the end patches from 8 to 13 implement a new feature: the Extended Isolation (which is basically it is an extension of the already existing AP Isolation concept). This new mechanism allows the user to prevent communications from a generic client A to a generic client B (located in two different point of the mesh network) based on the value of the skb->mark field. This can be seen as a first step towards a netfilter integration in a mesh-wide environment. For more documentation about this new mechanism, please read [1]. Please pull or let me know of any problem! Thanks a lot, Antonio [1] http://www.open-mesh.org/projects/batman-adv/wiki/Extended-isolation p.s. thanks for notifying me the merge of net into net-next! In this way I avoided you to deal with some ugly merge conflicts :) The following changes since commit 80077935cad223b292d4a03e901a953b20a36593: Merge branch 'master' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/net-next (2014-01-08 01:11:19 -0500) are available in the git repository at: git://git.open-mesh.org/linux-merge.git tags/batman-adv-for-davem for you to fetch changes up to 42cb0bef0176572e2e826b49d697c653eedd7fce: batman-adv: set the isolation mark in the skb if needed (2014-01-08 20:49:46 +0100) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Included changes: - substitute FSF address with URL - deselect current bat-GW when GW-client mode gets deactivated - send every DHCP packet using bat-unicast messages when GW-client mode is enabled - implement the Extended Isolation mechanism (it is an enhancement of the already existing batman-AP-isolation). This mechanism allows the user to drop packets exchanged by selected clients by using netfilter marks. - fix typ0 in header guard - minor code cleanups ---------------------------------------------------------------- Antonio Quartulli (13): batman-adv: properly rename define in distributed arp table header file batman-adv: don't switch byte order too often if not needed batman-adv: remove FSF address from GPL disclaimer batman-adv: deselect current GW on client mode switch off batman-adv: rename gw_deselect() to gw_reselect() batman-adv: remove parenthesis from return statements batman-adv: send every DHCP packet as bat-unicast batman-adv: add isolation_mark sysfs attribute batman-adv: mark a local client as isolated when needed batman-adv: print the new BATADV_TT_CLIENT_ISOLA flag batman-adv: extend the ap_isolation mechanism batman-adv: create helper function to get AP isolation status batman-adv: set the isolation mark in the skb if needed Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-net-mesh | 8 + net/batman-adv/Makefile | 4 +- net/batman-adv/bat_algo.h | 4 +- net/batman-adv/bat_iv_ogm.c | 4 +- net/batman-adv/bitarray.c | 4 +- net/batman-adv/bitarray.h | 4 +- net/batman-adv/bridge_loop_avoidance.c | 4 +- net/batman-adv/bridge_loop_avoidance.h | 4 +- net/batman-adv/debugfs.c | 4 +- net/batman-adv/debugfs.h | 4 +- net/batman-adv/distributed-arp-table.c | 10 +- net/batman-adv/distributed-arp-table.h | 10 +- net/batman-adv/fragmentation.c | 4 +- net/batman-adv/fragmentation.h | 4 +- net/batman-adv/gateway_client.c | 215 ++++++++++++------------- net/batman-adv/gateway_client.h | 10 +- net/batman-adv/gateway_common.c | 6 +- net/batman-adv/gateway_common.h | 4 +- net/batman-adv/hard-interface.c | 4 +- net/batman-adv/hard-interface.h | 4 +- net/batman-adv/hash.c | 4 +- net/batman-adv/hash.h | 4 +- net/batman-adv/icmp_socket.c | 4 +- net/batman-adv/icmp_socket.h | 4 +- net/batman-adv/main.c | 30 +++- net/batman-adv/main.h | 7 +- net/batman-adv/network-coding.c | 4 +- net/batman-adv/network-coding.h | 4 +- net/batman-adv/originator.c | 4 +- net/batman-adv/originator.h | 4 +- net/batman-adv/packet.h | 5 +- net/batman-adv/routing.c | 12 +- net/batman-adv/routing.h | 4 +- net/batman-adv/send.c | 20 ++- net/batman-adv/send.h | 14 +- net/batman-adv/soft-interface.c | 107 +++++++----- net/batman-adv/soft-interface.h | 4 +- net/batman-adv/sysfs.c | 92 ++++++++++- net/batman-adv/sysfs.h | 4 +- net/batman-adv/translation-table.c | 76 ++++++--- net/batman-adv/translation-table.h | 8 +- net/batman-adv/types.h | 18 ++- 42 files changed, 437 insertions(+), 311 deletions(-)
